EVERYBODY that votes needs to write in your candidate's name on the sheet.

Whether it's Barack Obama, Mitt Romney, Ron Paul, Gary Johnson or WHOEVER.


Write their names in. It only takes a half a minute to write somebody's name so don't act like it's a gotdamn chore. unless you don't care if your vote counts or not and would rather put that responsibility in the hands of the voting machines and the dolts that run them. way too much possibility of fraud when those 2 factors determine your final choice.

So it might as well be YOUR handwriting in INK.

That way it's no excuses, no mix ups, not undercounted votes, no fraud, and definitely no gotdamn hanging chads

Do you agree?

dumbest idea ever. Handwriting experts from the Dems would claim that the word Romney wasn't legible, and that ballot should be discounted, while experts from the right would claim they spelled Barack Obama incorrectly so 'that' ballot should be discounted.

Did you even think before you posted this??

Texas politicians are saying that punching a specific person's name after voting straight ticket automatically cancels that specific person. I have some reminders - http://www.usmessageboard.com/election-forums/256928-important-election-reminder.html

Any handwriting expert that says YOUR handwriting is the same as mine needs a labotomy.

DUMBASS!

You think a hanging chad can determine a winner better?

I heard that this morning. they said that if you vote straight ticket as a Dem but want to choose Romney as President, your vote is cancelled.

TALK ABOUT VOTER FRAUD. I guess they just said fuck it, we'll do voter fraud out in the open and in you face, what are you gonna do about it?
 
Sorry too much potential for debating the writing. Sounds costly too.

Voter IDs please. IDs just like we need to do so many other actions in this country.

Definitely keep the voter ID. that's how they get in line.

But how costly is it to have some ball pens on the table that they already have when you walk in? You already have to sign your name on the voting roll anyway.

People sit for 10-15 minutes trying to decide their choices anyway. so where's the cost?

I think given the absolute seriousness of THIS election, it's crucial all the votes are counted, counted properly and counted accurately. and distinct signatures do just that. hanging chads don't. and whose to say this election won't be cluttered with hanging chads again?

Have you ever spent much time trying to read other people's handwriting?

I think the cost comes from the disputes over the handwriting that will occur as well as the need for so much human intervention to read each and every ballot. I also think there might be some who would use poor scribble to muck up the elections.

How soon people forget the problems with write-in ballot interpretation. Such as the Murkowski/Miller Alaska race in 2010.

Why does that even matter moron? It's not a fucking speling test we're after. It's the validity of the voter in the gotdamn booth.

You have to sign when you walk in the gotdamn door and show your license anyway. Do you think they give a shit how your handwriting looks at that point in the process? no. so why the fuck should it matter when you cast your vote?

the fraud comes in at the time of the fucking vote counting, not at the time of the actual vote. and just by default of a person signing in when they walk in with their DL or voter ID is the proof that you are a legit voter, not when you sit there and cast your vote.

Printed Handwriting is a way better idea than just hanging your hopes on a hanging chad fiasco again. Remember Bush2? He stole a second term like that. and I'm almost positive Obama supporters will try the same shit since he's on his way out.

Actually, as was seen in 2010 as yes ballots are challenged based on "speling" and yes ballots are challenged based on handwriting, as shown by the court cases following the 2010 write-in campaign in Alaska.

So that's our only two choices? Hanging chads or handwriting? What happened to the machines my state uses, we can't use those no more? Why?
 
How about if we circle a picture of our candidate?

Which is why the write-ins should be in manuscript. the voting rolls has the signature.

You either want hanging chads or bad handwriting. which one calms your nerves the best?

That's called the Either/Or fallacy, structure a question where only two solutions are possible when in fact there are multiple solutions.



There are some places (although rare) that still use the old lever action voting machines. Which is neither a write-in for party candidates nor is it a hanging chad.

In my state we use a real difficult tool to master, it's called a pencil. Fill in the bubble and run it through an optical scanner. Again, neither is a write-in or a hanging chad ballot.

There are electronic touch screen voting machines now which requires neither that every candidate be written in or can produce a hanging chad.

In the future secure internet connections and public/private encryption technology will allow for internet voting. You won't have to write in a parties selected candidate and there will be no hanging chads.





Your either or solution is, well silly.
